Jacquelyn "Jaci" Jones '21 Recruiting Profile

I am a very determined teammate who works hard and I always do my best. I am a natural leader and a great team player. I have a good ability to calm the team down in times of stress. I do excellent in school. I do volunteer work inside and outside of my school and church.  For fall break, I'll be helping to build houses in Mexico during my second mission trip. I am overall a very well rounded person.

I've been learning volleyball since I was in 4th grade. I started really loving it about 3 years ago.  Playing in the Open division and running a 5-1 as a 13 year old (8th grader) this last year really took my game to the next level.  I never came off the court so the touches were such a great experience and really helped develop my rhythm and confidence. I'm always learning new things and growing as a player and interested in helping my teammates get there too. 

My goals are to play in college, internationally and at the Olympics in 2028.  I work hard at developing my skills, strengths and speed outside of practice too.  I work with a personal trainer 2-3 times a week to help me to keep getting to the next level.
